Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 集積回路パッケージ用多層リードフレーム本発明は電子パッケージにおいて使用 するための多層リードフレームに係り、とりわけ電子デバイスに対するワイヤボ ンディングのための可撓性多層部分及び外部回路に電気的に相互接続される剛性 金属部分を有する複合リードフレームに関するものである。[Detailed description of the invention] Multilayer lead frame for integrated circuit packages The invention is used in electronic packages It is related to multilayer lead frames for wire bonding, especially for electronic devices. flexible multilayer sections for bonding and rigid electrical interconnection to external circuitry The present invention relates to a composite lead frame having metal parts.

一般に、Si系半導体回路のような集積回路デバイスは電子パッケージと呼ばれ るハウジング内に収納される。Generally, integrated circuit devices such as Si-based semiconductor circuits are called electronic packages. It is housed in a housing.

電子パッケージは、集積回路か収容されるキャビティを画成するベースおよびカ バー構成要素を有する。代替的に、電子デバイスは重合体樹脂本体内にモールデ ィングされ得る。An electronic package includes a base and a cover that define a cavity in which an integrated circuit is housed. It has a bar component. Alternatively, the electronic device may be molded within a polymeric resin body. can be

パッケージとかかわりなく、電子デバイスを外部回路に電気的に相互接続する手 段が必要とされる。伝統的に、電気的相互接続はリードフレームの形式を取る。A method for electrically interconnecting electronic devices to external circuitry, regardless of packaging. steps are required. Traditionally, electrical interconnections take the form of lead frames.

リードフレームはCu合金またはFe−Ni合金のごとき導電性材料から形成さ れる。リードフレームは電子デバイスかマウントされる中心配置開口を画成する 複数のリードフィンガの型鍛造またはエツチングによって形成される。The lead frame is formed from a conductive material such as Cu alloy or Fe-Ni alloy. It will be done. The lead frame defines a centrally located aperture in which the electronic device is mounted. Formed by die forging or etching of multiple lead fingers.

前記開口と反対側のリードフィンガの端は外部回路との電気的相互接続のために パッケージベースの向こう側へ延びる。リードフレームは、ベース構成要素およ びカバー構成要素に接続されるか、または重合体樹脂内にモールディングされる 。The end of the lead finger opposite the opening is for electrical interconnection with external circuitry. Extends beyond the package base. The lead frame is the base component and connected to a cover component or molded within a polymeric resin. .

細いリード線は電子デバイスのフェース上の電気的に活性の接合位置に、電気的 に内リートフィンガを相互接続する。これらリード線は、直径において約0.0 25mm(0,001インチ)であり、導電性材料で形成される。通常、AI、 Ag、Cuまたはこれら金属の合金か使用される。リート線は熱圧接接合または 熱超音波接合によって内リードフィンガおよび半導体デバイスのフェースに接続 される。Thin leads connect electrically to electrically active junction locations on the face of electronic devices. interconnecting the inner leet fingers. These leads have a diameter of approximately 0.0 It is 25 mm (0,001 inch) and made of conductive material. Usually, AI, Ag, Cu or alloys of these metals are used. Riet wires are bonded by thermo-compression or Connected to inner lead fingers and face of semiconductor device by thermo-ultrasonic bonding be done.

ワイヤ接合部を有する従来のリードフレームは、外部環境に対する限定された個 数の接続部を必要とする電子デバイスにとっては満足される。例えば、DIPデ ュアル・イン・ラインパッケージのリードフレームの場合は64のリード(片側 につき32個)、そしてカド形り一ドフレームの場合は約130のリードか普通 である。集積回路デバイスが複雑になるにつれて、必要とされる接合部(ボンド )の数が増す。接合位置は互いにより接近しており、問題に遭遇する。Traditional lead frames with wire joints have limited isolation to the external environment. This is satisfactory for electronic devices requiring a large number of connections. For example, For dual-in-line package lead frames, there are 64 leads (one side 32 pieces per frame), and about 130 leads or normal in the case of a corner-shaped frame. It is. As integrated circuit devices become more complex, the number of junctions (bonds) required increases. ) increases. As the joining locations become closer together, problems are encountered.

従来のリードフレームは約0.13mm〜約0.5mm(0,005〜0020 インチ)の厚さである。型鍛造およびエツチングを考慮することによって、リー トフィンガの輻およびリード間の間隔は共に、リードフレームの厚さにほぼ等し い。通常、パッケージの全寸法は規格化されているから、リードフィンガのため に使用可能なスペースは制限される。パッケージ寸法を大きくすることは規格化 と重量の観点から望ましくない。Conventional lead frames are approximately 0.13 mm to approximately 0.5 mm (0,005 to 0,020 inches) thick. By considering die forging and etching, lead Both the finger radius and the lead-to-lead spacing are approximately equal to the leadframe thickness. stomach. Typically, all dimensions of the package are standardized, so lead fingers The space available for this is limited. Increasing package dimensions is standardized and undesirable from a weight standpoint.

リード密度に関するもう一つの制限はリード線の可撓性である。リード線の撓み は一つの問題である。小径の線は組立ておよび取扱いの間に動く可能性がある。Another limitation on lead density is lead flexibility. Deflection of lead wire is one problem. Small diameter wires can move during assembly and handling.

もしも2本のリード線か接触するならば、電気的短絡が生じ得る。If the two leads touch, an electrical short can occur.

リート密度を増すために提案されたー解決方法は多層リートである。この概念は 、当初、多層セラミックパッケージに受け入れられた。該パッケージは、複数の セラミック層であってそれらの間に被覆金属回路図形を配置されたものを有する 。被覆金属面を電気的に相互接続するため、導電路か1つ以上のセラミック層を 貫いて形成される。イブリハム他の米国特許第4320438号およびシュロー ダ−他の米国特許第4513355号は、リード密度かリードの千鳥配列によっ て増される多層セラミックパッケージを開示した。リード線は異なる垂直面上の 複数の金属被覆位置に接続される。リード線密度はワイヤ接合短絡の可能性を増 すことなしに増大される。A proposed solution to increase REIT density is multilayer REITs. This concept is , initially accepted into multilayer ceramic packaging. The package contains multiple having ceramic layers with coated metal circuitry arranged between them . To electrically interconnect coated metal surfaces, conductive tracks or one or more ceramic layers can be used. formed through. U.S. Pat. No. 4,320,438 to Ibriham et al. and Schroe U.S. Pat. No. 4,513,355 to Dar et al. A multilayer ceramic package is disclosed. The leads are on different vertical planes. Connected to multiple metallization locations. Lead wire density increases the likelihood of wire bond shorts. It is increased without any problem.

さらに多層技術は従来のリードフレームにも適用されている。例えば、ダニエル ズ他の米国特許第4680613号は、誘電層によってリードフレームから分離 されたグラウンド面を有するプラスチックDIPパッケージを開示している。1 つのリードが2つの導電層を電気的に相互接続するグラウンドプレートにダウン セットされ、かつスポット溶接される。リード密度を増さないか、グラウンド面 をリードフレームに結合することは誘導抵抗を最小化する。結合はデバイスかよ り高い速度で動作することを可能にする。Furthermore, multilayer technology has also been applied to conventional lead frames. For example, Daniel No. 4,680,613 to Z et al. separates the lead frame from the lead frame by a dielectric layer. A plastic DIP package is disclosed having a ground plane. 1 Two leads down to the ground plate electrically interconnecting the two conductive layers set and spot welded. Do not increase lead density or ground plane Bonding the lead frame to the lead frame minimizes induced resistance. Is the connection a device? This allows the system to operate at higher speeds.

モイヤー他の米国特許第4801765号は、誘電材料によって分離された自己 支持型のリードフレームを開示している。好ましくは、上下リードか交互に組合 わされる、すなわち上リードはより高い面においてではあるが下リード間の空間 部に位置する。U.S. Pat. No. 4,801,765 to Moyer et al. A supported lead frame is disclosed. Preferably, upper and lower leads are combined alternately. crossed, i.e. the upper lead is on a higher plane but in the space between the lower leads. located in the department.

「インテル多層成形高性能POEP紹介」と題されたインテルのパンフレットに 掲載されたマリク他による「多層成形プラスチックパッケージ」と題する一輪車 は、二金属層リードフレームを開示している。第1金属層はグラウンド面である 。電子デバイスはこの層に直接に接続される。第2金属層はパワー面である。第 3層すなわち最上層は従来のリードフレームである。3つの金属層は誘電接着剤 によって電気的に絶縁される。リード線は電子デバイスから3つの金属層の各々 へ延びる。リードフレームはパワー・ブラウンドル・プインダクタンスを減少さ せ、かつシングルリードの容量を減少させる。電子デバイスは金属グラウンド面 上に設けられるから、熱の消散が改善されて電子デバイスの動作温度を減じる。In Intel's brochure titled "Introduction to Intel's multilayer molded high-performance POEP" A unicycle titled “Multilayer Molded Plastic Package” published by Malik et al. discloses a two-metal layer leadframe. The first metal layer is the ground plane . Electronic devices are connected directly to this layer. The second metal layer is the power plane. No. The third or top layer is a conventional lead frame. The three metal layers are dielectric adhesive electrically isolated by Lead wires run from the electronic device to each of the three metal layers extends to The lead frame reduces power brown inductance. and reduce single lead capacity. Electronic devices have a metal ground plane The heat dissipation is improved and the operating temperature of the electronic device is reduced.

多層テープ自動接合(TAB)リードも開示されている。典型的には銅である複 数の薄い金属箔層が誘電層によって支持される。好適な誘電層はデュポン社によ って製造されるキャブトンのごときポリイミドである。誘電層はまた導電層を電 気的に絶縁する。ネザウツドの米国特許第3684818号は、セラミックパッ ケージ内において複数の集積回路ダイを電気的に相互接続するための二金属層ビ ームリードを開示する。ホジソン他の米国特許第4814855号は多層TAB 構造を形成する一手段を開示する。ホンディングボールかビームリードの端に形 成される。異なる層の整合されたホールか電気的相互接続を達成するためにサー モードと一緒に接続される。A multilayer tape automated bonding (TAB) lead is also disclosed. Composite material, typically copper A number of thin metal foil layers are supported by a dielectric layer. A suitable dielectric layer is provided by DuPont. It is a polyimide such as Cabton, which is manufactured by The dielectric layer also connects the conductive layer with electricity. Insulate yourself. U.S. Pat. No. 3,684,818 to Nezaud describes the Two-metal layer vias for electrically interconnecting multiple integrated circuit die within a cage. Disclose the system lead. U.S. Pat. No. 4,814,855 to Hodgson et al. One means of forming the structure is disclosed. Shaped at the end of a honding ball or beam lead will be accomplished. Matched holes in different layers or service to achieve electrical interconnection. Connected together with mode.

多層リードフレームはり一ト密度を増し、より良い電気的性能を提供するか、先 行技術の弱点のすべてが解決されるわけてはない。もし従来のリードフレームが 多層構造の一部分を形成するならば、型鍛造とエツチングの弱点が残る。最小リ ード幅とリード間隔は、共にリードの厚さに概ね等しい。箔リードは、組立てお よび取扱い中に損傷され易い。箔リードかポリイミド支持層の向こう側へ延びる とき、リードの変形と平坦性の喪失が生じ得る。Multilayer leadframe beams increase density and provide better electrical performance or Not all of the weaknesses in the technology will be resolved. If the traditional lead frame If forming part of a multilayer structure, the weaknesses of die forging and etching remain. Minimum re Both the lead width and the lead spacing are approximately equal to the lead thickness. Foil leads are assembled and and easily damaged during handling. Extends beyond foil leads or polyimide support layer Deformation and loss of flatness of the leads can occur.

従って、本発明の目的は先行技術の弱点を持たない多層リードフレームを提供す ることである。本発明の一特徴は、多層リードフレームが剛性金属リードフレー ム部分に接続されたTAB内部分を有する複合体であることである。本発明のさ らなる一利点は、薄箔TABリードが標準リードフレームによって得られるそれ より微細な大きさに食刻され得ることである。本発明のもう一つの利点は、多層 TAB構造がインピーダンスおよび信号りロストークを減じてより速い動作速度 を可能にすることである。本発明の他の利点は、剛性の大きな外側金属リードフ レームが多層構造体の取扱いを容易にすることである。本発明のさらに他の利点 は、箔リードかポリイミド支持層によって支持されることである。箔リードが前 記支持層の向こう側へ延びるとき、懸念されるリードの変形が排除される。It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a multilayer lead frame that does not have the weaknesses of the prior art. Is Rukoto. One feature of the invention is that the multilayer lead frame is a rigid metal lead frame. It is a complex having an internal part of TAB connected to a part of the TAB. The features of this invention One advantage is that thin foil TAB leads are superior to those obtained with standard lead frames. It can be etched to a finer size. Another advantage of the invention is that the multi-layer TAB structure reduces impedance and signal losstalk for faster operating speeds The goal is to make it possible. Another advantage of the present invention is that the outer metal lead leaf has greater stiffness. The frame facilitates handling of the multilayer structure. Still other advantages of the invention is supported by either foil leads or a polyimide support layer. Foil lead in front Concerned deformation of the leads as they extend beyond the support layer is eliminated.

第1図は先行技術において知られているごときカド・リードフレーム10を上面 図で図示する。リードフレーム■0は、銅または銅基合金のような導電材料から 形成される。成る用途のためには、42合金(公称組成41%Ni、残部Fe) のごときFe−Ni合金またはコバール(Fe−Ni−Co合金の商用者)か低 熱膨張係数を利用するために使用される。通常、リードフレームIOは約0.2 5mm(0,010インチ)のオーダーの厚さである。しかし、約0.13mm (0,005インチ)〜約0.5mm(0,020インチ)のリードフレーム厚 さも使用される。FIG. 1 shows a top view of a quad lead frame 10 as known in the prior art. Illustrated in the figure. Lead frame ■0 is made of conductive material such as copper or copper-based alloy It is formed. 42 alloy (nominal composition 41% Ni, balance Fe) Fe-Ni alloys such as Kovar (a commercial manufacturer of Fe-Ni-Co alloys) or low Used to take advantage of the coefficient of thermal expansion. Typically lead frame IO is about 0.2 It is on the order of 5 mm (0,010 inches) thick. However, about 0.13mm (0,005 inch) to approximately 0.5 mm (0,020 inch) lead frame thickness Also used.

リードフレームIOは、一般にリート14を支持し、かつ取扱いの間における損 傷からリードを保護するフレーム12を有する。フレーム12は、リートの自動 化整合を容易にするためにスプロケット穴のような指示手段16を有する。リー ド14は、電子デバイスに対するワイヤ接合を容易にするためにアルミニウムの ごとき第2材料によって被覆される内リート部分I8を存する。リ−ト14の反 対端は外リード20を形成する。パッケージか組立てられたとき、フレーム12 はリードフレーム10から切断され、前記外リードは外部回路に電気的に相互接 続される。The lead frame IO generally supports the REIT 14 and protects it from losses during handling. It has a frame 12 that protects the leads from scratches. Frame 12 is REET's automatic Indicators 16, such as sprocket holes, are included to facilitate alignment. Lee The board 14 is made of aluminum to facilitate wire bonding to electronic devices. There is an inner reat portion I8 coated with a second material such as the like. Reit 14 anti The opposite end forms an outer lead 20. When the package is assembled, the frame 12 are cut from the lead frame 10, and the outer leads are electrically interconnected to an external circuit. Continued.

全てのカドリードフレームに組入れられるとは限らないか、多くはリードフレー ム10と同じ金属板で形成された付設台バッド22を有する。台パッド22は、 バット支え24によって支持される。これら支え24はパッケージ組立ての間に 随意的に切断され得る。Si系半導体デバイス(図示せず)のごとき電子回路か 、当業者に知られている任意の従来の付設合手段によって台バッド22に設けら れる。もしも、リードフレーム10か比較的低い熱膨張係数を有する材料で形成 されるならば、金シリコンまたは金錫のごとき共晶鑞付設合がしばしば使用され る。もしも、リードフレームか銅または比較的高い熱膨張係数を有する鋼基合金 であるならば、銀含有エポキシ接着剤または鉛錫合金鑞のごとき追従性を有する ダイアタッチか使用される。It may not be included in all quad lead frames, and many are It has an attachment base pad 22 formed of the same metal plate as the frame 10. The base pad 22 is It is supported by a butt support 24. These supports 24 are Can be optionally truncated. Is it an electronic circuit such as a Si-based semiconductor device (not shown)? , attached to the platform pad 22 by any conventional attaching means known to those skilled in the art. It will be done. If the lead frame 10 is made of a material with a relatively low coefficient of thermal expansion, If so, eutectic brazing joints such as gold-silicon or gold-tin are often used. Ru. If the lead frame is made of copper or a steel-based alloy with a relatively high coefficient of thermal expansion, If so, it has conformability like silver-containing epoxy adhesive or lead-tin alloy solder. Die attach or used.

内リート14は接合ワイヤ(以下、ポンドワイヤと称する)の長さを最小化する ために電子デバイスにきわめて接近している。過度に長いポンドワイヤは、隣接 ワイヤか電気的に短絡する可能性を増し、また電子デバイスの動作速度を減じる 。前述のごとく、型鍛造およびエツチングを考慮を入れることによって、第1図 において「W」で表される低リード14の幅は、リードフレームの厚さのオーダ ー、すなわち一般に概ね0.25mm(0,010インチ)のオーダーの幅でな くてはならない。同様に、第1図において「S」て表されるリード間隔は、やは りリードフレームの厚さのオーダー、すなわち0.25mm(0,010インチ )のオーダーである。The inner ream 14 minimizes the length of the bonding wire (hereinafter referred to as pound wire). Because of this, they are in close proximity to electronic devices. Excessively long pound wires are Increases the likelihood of wire or electrical shorts and reduces the operating speed of electronic devices . As mentioned above, by taking die forging and etching into consideration, The width of the low lead 14, denoted "W" in , is on the order of the thickness of the lead frame. -, i.e. generally on the order of 0.25 mm (0.010 inch) wide. Must not be too expensive. Similarly, the lead spacing, denoted "S" in Figure 1, is on the order of lead frame thickness, i.e. 0.25 mm (0,010 inch). ) is the order.

従って、一つの内リードの中心から次の内リードの中心までのピッチ即ち距離は 0.5mm(0,020インチ)である。これは電子デバイスの至近に配置され 得るり一トの個数を制限する。例えば、10.16mmX10.16mm(0, 4xO,4インチ)の周辺寸法を有する電子デバイスは、一般に単に1辺につき 約20個のリードすなわち1つのカド・パッケージのための80個のリードを支 持する。Therefore, the pitch or distance from the center of one inner lead to the center of the next inner lead is It is 0.5 mm (0,020 inch). This is placed in close proximity to electronic devices. Limit the number of pieces you get.
